How exactly does the medallion work? I know it replaces the old key cards and it's based on radio frequency. However, how is it used to order drinks etc.? Is it used in conjunction with my phone? Do I order on my phone and use the medallion to 'pay'? If I'm in a bar, do I have to use my phone to order? I don't want to have to carry my phone - it's not welded to my hand, and unlike most people I don't spend 16 hrs./day staring at the screen and start to withdrawal symptoms if I'm accidentally separated from it.

Can any recent Island Princess pax tell me exactly where (other than Churchill's Lounge) the smoking areas are. Thanks! 😎

Hi there! I'm in Vietnam and can change the country code for my mobile to +84; however, the app won't 'Save' it - it reverts to +1. What I did was 'untick' the SMS Messaging box (so it won't send messages to phones I can't answer/wrong numbers) and left it at that. It took me 10 hours to enter all the info. required to get to 'Green Line' status - one of the most frustrating exercises I've ever experienced! 😖 EDIT: It took 5 minutes to enter the information. It took 10 hours of 'screwing around' to get the app to accept the information.

Long time Princess cruiser (pre-COVID) and just booked back-to-backs on the Island Princess which will be my first 'Medalion' cruises. I HATE this Medallion App thing! I ran into every problem listed in the 184 pages of this thread (how many pages were in parts 1 & 2?) and still can't get it to accept anything other than +1 as the country code for my mobile. I can't use the web version because when I try to log in, it tells me my email address is not valid - I know my friggin' email address (and it's correct). Medallion (cr)App! 😡

Can anyone who has been on the Westerdam lately (preceding 6 months of May 2022) tell me where the smoking areas are? Thanks! 🙂
